What Alpac SRL does

Alpac SRL is an Argentine private limited company (ALPAC S.R.L.) founded in 1993 by Leandro Motzo, headquartered and manufacturing in Avellaneda, Buenos Aires Province. The company produces disposable aluminum packaging — trays, plates, pudding molds (budineras), cups (including marmitas and cazuelas), aluminum foil rolls in 4m/50m lengths, and pre-cut sheets — for the gastronomic, bakery, and household food-storage end markets. Manufacturing is built around 6 aluminum roll production lines and 9 tray production lines operating inside a 1,500+ m2 facility, using pharmaceutical-grade prelubricated foil approved by SENASA under certificate IF-2020-87147217-APN-DNIYCA#SENASA, plus ISO 9001:2015 and RNE/RNP registrations.

The business model is straightforward B2B/B2C hardware sales: Alpac supplies aluminum containers and rolls to almost all Argentine supermarkets and to a named network of nine domestic distributors (Polibol, First Packing, Movipack, Charparin, Neopel, Saiz Caputo, La Pilarica, Manapel, Sebalen), reaching end consumers through retail channels. The portfolio is structured under three brands — Alpac (core), Alupaq (premium trays, plates, cups, rolls and specialty molds), and Ben (40+-year-old kitchen bags and freezer separators). Alpac holds more than 50% of the Argentine national market for aluminum food packaging, which consumes more than 800 tons annually, and began exporting in 2022 to Uruguay, Paraguay, and Peru while pursuing United States entry. The company is family-owned and operated, with founder Leandro Motzo leading alongside his father, siblings, and son.
